The Board is responsible for overseeing the management of the business of the Group and the Directors’ powers are subject to the Company’s Articles of Association and any applicable legislation and regulation.

The Board operates through a comprehensive set of processes, which define the schedule of matters to be considered by the Board and its Committees during the annual business cycle and the level of delegated authorities (both financial and non-financial).

The Board has established five principal committees: the Audit Committee, the Remuneration Committee, the Nominations Committee, the Risk & CSR Committee and the Security Committee.

Each committee operates within written terms of reference approved by the Board, details of which can be found on the links below.
